Heaven or Hell (Life has been Crazy!)

Life has been super crazy and I love it!

After starting Bonds of Love, I found a small amount of peace.

That peace let me get through the time that my husband was out of the country.

He is soon to go back out of the country and another small piece of peace has found me, I will start working at a job where I can learn to do more for my business...Bonds Of Love.

I love to be busy.... the busier I am ...the better I am. The more I do, the more I am able to get done. Up until almost 3 years ago and as far back as high school, I have almost always had three jobs.

I love how Life test you, and keeps you on your toes. I am thankful that I am able to find my way out of the darkness that I once lived in. Everyday is a battle, a battle I am willing to fight. Not just sit and wallow in it like its the unshakable plague.

It was not easy to climb out, and honestly I really don't know how I got there. However, I do know how to Get out and how to stay Out of the darkness. It has to be done in baby steps. Each day I take a step forward, looking for the good, focusing on the good things, I make small changes, and I can finally see, while being grateful for my wonderful life. Yes there are days where I slip and that dark mood strikes me, normally those days I haven't gotten out of my pj's and I feel totally gross. But I don't beat myself up over it. I just say "its OK to have a bum out day". Then the next day comes, I make myself dress, I go out... and Normally I end up at some place great!

I have learned something I always knew.
We can live in Hell or We can Live in Heaven .... right here on earth ...
Focusing on the bad and the Ugly = Hell.
Focusing on the Good and the Beautiful = Heaven

We just have to pick .... I pick Heaven.... How about you?

When Dog $h!T Happens!




Lets see where to start this....

When I was in my teen years as a punishment I was made to go outside and clean up dog poo with a broken handled shovel and a bag. I would gag and be in tears by what I thought was a horrible punishment! I remember being so mad about it...


Now lets fast forward to the present day....

I live in the city, where you have to pick up your dogs poo and hope there is some kind of trashcan with in a few meters of where your lovable beast decides to put down his $#!^.

This is the item I bought for my wonderful dog... aka Pooping machine. This item is a wonderful thing... it attaches to the leash and allows you to pull out just one bag at a time and its refillable.... So in theory you will never be with out a bag.




My hubbie on the other hand does not like this item, I bought that latches onto the leash for the connivance of never having to worry about having a poopie bag on hand when ever our dog needs to lay down his duty. Even though I was tired of finding random poopie bags all over the house, or in pockets of jackets or jeans....And then to think we are out but really we have a whole roll stashed in odd places O.o

At first he would take it off the leash and I would put it back on the leash.... this went on for a few weeks, finally I just gave in and didn't put it back on again...

Then the other day I was out with our dog just after taking the kids to school, I brought just one bag with me ... which he always does just one in the morning BUT not that morning he went Twice! Later I was informed it was his favorite spot to go poo! HA .... Panic struck through me, feeling like a bad dog owner, I hung my head low and swore to myself if only I had that poopie bag holder!!!

Today I went to grab just one bag and thought twice... maybe I should take the whole roll with me. There was NO Way I was going to relive the feeling of being a bad city dog owner...

And Then it happened! 
The bag split! With the poo falling right back to the ground... Thankfully I brought the whole roll, so taking off the second bag I noticed the bottom of that one was not closed ... so I tied a knot and re-picked up the poop as well as the broken bag...with the flash backs of being a girl that was sooooo upset about picking poo up with a shovel....

Life sure is funny! And Yes the Poopie bag holder is Now Back On the Leash!

Alittle Rant...I stayed up..

I stayed up ...until now which is 12:23 am... which for the past week I have been going to bed early. One hour after the kiddoes go to sleep expect for Thursday night I had to stay up and watch Nikita ... I really like that show.

Anyways, every night for the past week I snuggle down and fall fast to sleep only to be awaken around this time by some strange noise...

So tonight I stayed awake trying to be crafty and make something. New point never try to be creative when ready for bed.... Doesn't work!

Needless to say I have not heard this strange noise that seems to jar me about of my wonderful peaceful sleep.

I hope I can get a good night sleep now... I have found if I go to sleep early. I can sleep, if I stay awake past my bed time, I do not sleep really well.... if at all.

Well I am off to bed ...peaceful dreams here I come.
